# addbddassoc(3)

creates a new association variables.

## NAME

addbddassoc - creates a new association variables.

## SYNOPSYS

```
#include "bdd101.h"
bddassoc ∗addbddassoc( BddSystem )
  bddsystem  ∗BddSystem;
```

## PARAMETERS

- *BddSystem*

  The **bdd** system.

## DESCRIPTION

**addbddassoc** creates a new association variables in the **bdd** system *BddSystem*.  If a null pointer is given, the default **bdd** system is used.\

## RETURN VALUE

**addbddassoc** returns a pointer to the new variable association.

## ERRORS

**"no more variable association, error !"**

There is no variable association number left.

## EXAMPLE

```
#include "bdd101.h"
   bddsystem  ∗BddSystem;
   bddcircuit ∗BddCircuit;
   bddnode    ∗BddNode;
   bddnode    ∗BddSubst;
   bddnode    ∗BddVariable;
   bddassoc   ∗Assoc;
   chain_list ∗Expr;
   bddvar         Variable;
   BddSystem  = createbddsystem( 100, 1000, 100, 50000 );
   BddCircuit = createbddcircuit( "hello_world", 10, 10, BddSystem );
   Expr = createablbinexpr( ABL_AND,
                            createablatom( "i0" ),
                            createablatom( "i1" ) );
   BddNode = addbddcircuitabl( BddCircuit, Expr );
   freeablexpr( Expr );
   Expr = createablbinexpr( ABL_OR,
                            createablatom( "i2" ),
                            createablatom( "i3" ) );
   BddSubst = addbddcircuitabl( BddCircuit, Expr );
   freeablexpr( Expr );
   BddVariable = searchbddcircuitin( (bddcircuit ∗)0, "i0" );
   Variable = getbddvarbyindex( (bddsystem ∗)0, BddVariable->INDEX );
   Assoc = addbddassoc( (bddsystem ∗)0 );
   addbddnodeassoc( (bddsystem ∗)0, Assoc, Variable, BddSubst );
   BddNode = substbddnodeassoc( (bddsystem ∗)0, BddSubst, Assoc );
   delbddassoc( (bddsystem ∗)0, Assoc );
   Expr = convertbddcircuitabl( BddCircuit, BddNode );
   /* displays ((i3 or i2) and i1) */
   viewablexpr( Expr, ABL_VIEW_VHDL );
   freeablexpr( Expr );
   destroybddassoc( (bddsystem ∗)0 );
   destroybddsystem( (bddsystem ∗)0 );
   destroybddcircuit( (bddcircuit ∗)0 );
